Tasting Notes

Nose

Prickly. Grassy. Freshly cut grass. Angelica, lemon balm. Vanilla wafer. Touch of mint. Refreshing.

Sweet and smooth at first. Getting fizzy. Light and refreshing. White peach. Pear Williams. The alcohol is not totally mastered. Numbing sensation.

Finish

Dry, tangy, burning.

Comment

A pleasant light aromatic profile but this whisky has not matured in very active casks.
